Pristine and modified mucuna beans adsorptive studies of toxic lead ions and methylene blue dye from aqueous solution

In this study mucuna beans were used for the removal of toxic Pb(II) ions and methylene blue dye from aqueous solution. The use of mucuna beans in water treatment application is largely unexplored. Therefore the current study is the first ever to report on mucuna beans as potential adsorbents. Mucun...
